The snowy mountain of gladandong

The snowy mountain of gladandong

Snow mountain in Geladandong: it is the main peak of Tanggula Mountain. The administrative map of China shows that it is in the south of Tanggula Mountain Township, Golmud City, Qinghai Province.

Jianggen diru glacier in the north of Qinghai Province, with a height of 6621 meters, is the source of Tuotuo River, one of the sources of the Yangtze River. At the foot of the mountain to the east of it, there is a group of ice towers with an area of about 800 square kilometers, which is called gangjiaqioba.

Explanation: some people say that it is located in Mafei Jiri Township, Anduo County, Nagqu County, Tibet. In fact, it is not right. There is no information about Mafei Jiri township or its immigration management plate in Anduo county. Even if it is moved here, it is also an immigration management plate. It is not a township in the ordinary sense. The geographical administrative power is still in Qinghai Province. See entry Tanggula Mountain town for detailed explanation.

The snow mountain of Geladandong (Geladandong): it is the main peak of Tanggula Mountain. The administrative map of Anduo county shows that it is in the south of Tanggula Mountain Township in Qinghai Province.

Some people say that it is located in Mafei Jiri Township, Naduo County, Tibet. However, there is no information about the migration of Mafei Jiri township or its immigration management plate in Ando county. We should respect the national administrative map and explain the reasons later.

The jianggendiru glacier in the north is in Qinghai Province.

The East glardan system is composed of a large mountain glacier group with a length of more than 50 kilometers from north to South and a width of more than 30 kilometers from east to west. It is located at 9L ° e, 33.5 ° N and 662l m above sea level. Geladandong snow mountain in Naduo county is the birthplace of the Yangtze River, and its ice Pagoda Forest is of high ornamental value.

Ice tower distribution

With a height of 6621 meters, it is the source of the Yangtze River. At the foot of the mountain to the east of it, there is a group of ice towers with an area of about 800 square kilometers, which is called gangjiaqioba. There are different shapes of these ice pagodas, some of which are like crystal pagodas carved with exquisite craftsmanship, towering on the horizon at the foot of the mountain. The body of the tower is flashing through the sunlight, and colorful light columns crisscross, making the whole ice forest into a rainbow world. There are many towering towers, the top of which is filled with sweet French bells. Such a charming ice and snow scene is really unique.

Some ice peaks are like a pair of agate like horse ears, which are symmetrical and harmonious on both sides, and the black-and-white stripes are gorgeous, just like two nine eyes swimming up from the water. Some ice peaks are like a pair of huge and deep eye sockets, peeping at the vast land all the time. Some ice peaks are shaped like dinosaurs and snow frogs holding people. In short, strange shapes can be found everywhere. But the most interesting thing is the seven colors of light in the ice forest. In the depth of the ice forest, there is a broken ice tower. There is a deep crack at the root of the remaining ice tower. From the crack, there are seven brilliant colors, colorful, unpredictable and fascinating. No one can tell exactly what it is, whether it is the Pearl of the mountain god, or the treasure of the Dragon Palace, or the spiritual light between heaven and earth.

The bottom of some ice towers has been melted to form many clean and comfortable igloos. In front of the door, there are curtains made of many slender icicles. When you step into them and sit for a moment, you will feel warm like spring. Such a colorful ice Pagoda Forest is undoubtedly an ice sculpture created by nature for thousands of years. It belongs to the creator's handicraft and can be called unparalleled in the world.

Respect the national administrative map

Some netizens said that Geladandong snow mountain is located in Mafei Jiri Township, Anduo County, Nagqu, Tibet. However, the administrative map of Anduo County in China's administrative map shows that it is in the south of Tanggula Mountain Township, Golmud City, Qinghai Province. Moreover, there is no information about the migration of Mafei Jiri township or its migration management plate in Anduo county. Even if it is moved here, it is also a migration management plate, not a town of general significance. The geographical administrative power is still in Qinghai Province.

There are also similar problems: for example, Yanshiping town in Anduo County, Nagqu Prefecture, Tibet, in Sogou search and Baidu search, is shown in the southern area of Golmud City, Qinghai Province (i.e. Tanggulashan town area). For example, MaRong Township, Anduo County, "MaRong township"_ Sogou map and MaRong Village_ Baidu map "is shown in Golmud City, Qinghai Province.

What's going on? The geographical jurisdiction has always belonged to Qinghai Province, Anduo county has set up an immigration management system nearby (in 1962, the snowstorm hit Anduo County, and Qinghai Province borrowed some places from Zhiduo County, Zaduo county and Tanggulashan township to help Anduo herdsmen tide over the disaster). Qinghai and Tibet have negotiated and coordinated for many times, taking into account the arrangement of both sides. The specific process is introduced in the ninth part of "Superstar: question and answer Haixi state". In addition, see entry Tanggula Mountain town for detailed explanation.

However, there is no information about the migration of Mafei Jiri township or its immigration management plate in Ando county.
